If I had written the Friday Update

.....  I would have told you the good news:

Mom is feeling much better.  Says she is feeling almost back to normal.  yay!

I am regaining energy and feeling better.

And Peter is back in his car woo hoo!!!  Funny story though.  As I prepared for bed Thursday evening I was excited to think I didn't have watch for Peter's text as to when to pick him up from work. I came out of the bathroom and found a text from him that said "10:00", the normal kind of text for when to pick him up.  I text back saying "hmmm didn't you drive?"  He responded with "Habit."  It was funny.  

That is all the fun stuff I would have told you Friday.  

But now it is Sunday

Yesterday while helping mom in her flowers I sat down on the pine straw covered hill to pull some weeds.  Evidently I sat on someone small because it bit the fire out of my hiney! After I soaked in the tub, mom looked at it and she felt pretty sure it wasn't a black widow spider bite. She did put ointment on it.  Today although it doesn't look like it is spreading infection in my body, it has developed into a little welt and is kind of painful and itchy.  But no paralysis so still hopeful I will survive.

I was staying over at mom's last night - just because she enjoys my company and I was letting her neighbors dog out while the neighbor was at a family gathering.  I crawled in bed and dozed off to get a call from Peter at 11 pm.  His car broke down not far from our house.  He said it was pulled into a parking lot and he was walking home.  This morning I found the car was in the middle of a driveway into a restaurant.  So we called AAA (third time in about 6 weeks) and had it delivered back to the mechanic.  It is sitting outside the mechanic lot in a not so safe neighborhood.  I am holding my breath it will be there in tact and without a ticket come morning when the mechanic arrives.

Yes I want to beat my head against a wall.  

Good news though, I just called to check on mom and as of writing she is still good!  I am extra grateful for that.
